Spring is almost here! Why should you eat vegetables and fruits in season? Plenty of reasons including the fact that veggies and fruits in season are more nutritious, more tasty, and that it’s easier on your wallet than their non-season counterparts! Since it’s almost Spring, here’s a load of delicious Paleo Spring Recipes to try – salads, soups, asparagus, artichokes, spinach, avocados and more!

I feel like cabbage is so underrated! It’s so delicious to me… but I mostly stir fry it Chinese style. One common method is to stir fry cabbage with dried shrimp (recipe here), but another is to stir fry cabbage with Sichuan peppercorn! This gives it a different flavor and it’s always fun to switch it up and eat something different and delicious once in awhile.

If you love broccolini but have never tried making it before or never had it before but are curious, here’s an Easy Asian Broccolini recipe to try! As you probably already know, Broccolini is a green vegetable similar to broccoli but with smaller florets and longer, thinner stalks. However, here’s an interesting fact you might not know – Broccolini is actually a natural hybrid of Broccoli and Gai Lan (Chinese Broccoli)!

Root vegetables are to fall as asparagus is to spring. And yes, you know a true foodie when their season’s are marked by the changes in produce not the changes in weather. And I know, Brussels Sprouts aren’t root vegetables, but the name of this recipe was so catchy I couldn’t help myself! Forgive me. This Paleo Roasted Root Vegetables recipe is not your typical roasted root vegetable recipe. Yes, there are herbs and rustic knife cuts. But, this method of seasoning makes it so every vegetable is slightly different and totally jazzes up what is typically a one note dish.

October is Vegetarian Awareness Month! Now, I know lots of people think that Paleo = Anti Vegetarian, but it’s really not true at all! There are actually plenty of people who eat a more veggie based paleo diet! For me, everyone knows I LOVE meat, but to be honest I can go a day without eating meat, but I can’t go a day without eating any veggies! Looking for some Paleo meatless dishes? Look no further! Here’s a collection of delicious Paleo Vegetarian Dishes!

I’ve lived in the lower-North East U.S. all of my life. From Pittsburgh, to White Plains, NY, landing in Philadelphia, and now in middle-of-nowhere Ohio. And in all of these places, fall seems to come on FAST and disappear into winter just as quickly. So we kind of have to jump from flip-flops-and-shorts to hoodies-and-hats very quickly, or we miss out on this season altogether.

I am not a breakfast fan, but I am a brunch fan. There is something to be said about a relaxing Sunday with a nice Bloody Mary (or Maria if you are me). The classic garlicky and spicy pickled green beans is the quintessential stirring stick of a bloody Mary. And best of all, to achieve this classic dilly bean, you just need is some basic canning equipment and patience.

What do you do with an abundant amount of garden greens? Especially when you’re the only one that eats them? Bacon. The answer to all the world’s problems. Bacon. This is a simple recipe from my grandma that she taught me and used to get all her kids to eat their greens. Add a little bacon and butter (or coconut oil) and there you go. My family of two (plus dogs) can devour 5 pounds of greens easily in one sitting. Thanks Grandma and of course, Bacon!
